Shrinking pathways painted red,
Blurry vision or fairytale
Sinking image in my head,
Am I awake behind the veil?

Take a peek and see through me,
Seek the devil in the details
An open book is where you'll find
All the undiscovered secrets hidden under
The Veil

Locked inside alone in silence,
You're going mad, losing your senses
Stuck in this hell,
I wanna taste what's real again,
Find a way to end this

Have you lost your way?
Forced to sail,
Watching through the veil
Don't let your dreams fade away

I know somewhere there is a key
To reach something that I adore
I'm not afraid of the blur,
I want a bite of the lure
I don't know where this is going
But once again I fall into this prison

Tearing down the walls in front of me,
Break these chains
Buried alive I crawl back up,
Break free

This is the day that I reach for the light
To finally set rest to this lonely night

Have you ever truly dreamed?
Been so drawn to it?

Have you lost your way?
Forced to sail,
Watching through the veil
Don't let your dreams fade away

Have I lost my way?
Just trying to find my purpose,
Reaching the surface,
Waking up to brighter days

Have you ever truly dreamed?
Have you ever truly dreamed?
Have you ever truly dreamed?
Have you ever truly dreamed?

    My Interpretation

    To me this about someone so out of it, going mad and far removed from life (maybe drug issues), it's as if they're viewing life behind some sort of obscurement or veil.
